Vampire, you drain me
With paradisaic touch
I wither, neglected
My vows written in blood.

With paradisaic touch
I ramble in delirium
My vows written in blood
I drown in illusion.

I ramble in delirium
You, my only obsession
I drown in illusion
A modern Ophelia.

You, my only obsession
Memory's flowers
A modern Ophelia
I collapse, pale, diluted.

Memory's flowers
You, my fading zenith
I collapse, pale, diluted
My tilting crutch gone.

You, my fading zenith
I wither neglected
My tilting crutch gone
Vampire, you drain me.
